The lad was violently pushed down by this big steward, and managed to get up and smashed him in the face. So no, it wasnt for no apparent reason, just stewards being c*nts
After watching Forest play the other week, i can confirm that 1 of their centre backs, number 5 (whoever it is) is SH*T, and the other one was ok. So they could DEFINATLY do with the likes of Pearce.
